t5 fifth gear VERY SLOW uphill and VIBRation

guys.

my first four gears ride nice and smoooth....

my fifth gear rides smoooth only after 60mph and on a level road/highway.

the minute there is an inclined hill.....My 5th gear starts to vibrate.

it feels like the drive shaft. Also whats the reason for the loss of power?
4th gear uphill has ALOT of kick to it then the minute i go to 5th gear all my power goes out the window (this is around 55 to 60 mph uphill). I can floor it but i dont get any gain or response.

my timing is set to 3 degrees before top dead center because i still have the 5.0 injectors from the motor swap.

any ideas?

Not a transmission problem. It's impossible for a transmission to even do that.

You have a burnt spark plug wire.
